When you're sitting in front of a computer, you can run a remote application without having to install the program locally, which is a good idea. Can this really be done? Sure, but what about the specifics?

The idea of running a program remotely has long been, and it's not a new invention. But who can actually do that? In fact, it's rarely seen. Http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/13835.html ">ubuntu11.04 new version has this function, a little strange also." Just imagine, if you are a little interested in an application, do not have to download, do not have to install, finger Point can run the program, and so satisfied with the download, installation is not too late. Some would say, what's so strange about this? The difficulty is that this and all require running the program in the browser, which is not easy to do.

As you know, program running requires a lot of computer resources. In other words, in the remote Internet "cloud" for a particular application of the automatic real-time construction of a corresponding temporary virtual environment, that is, remote virtual computers to run the corresponding application, at this time, on your terminal computer through the browser can be seen on the scene of the results of the operation.

This feature is called "testdrive", but it is required to install a browser-like plug-in "Gtnx" in advance of the client to run it in the Ubuntu Software Center. Now in retrospect, in the second half of 2006, "Ubuntu Laboratory" in the Sadie building 15-storey computer room, the use of LTSP on the LAN to achieve this function. But last October, Edubuntu10.10 the function to the Internet cloud (through the browser), further, this April, Ubuntu11.04 it "by extension".

How does this remote run, access the application function be implemented? This is hard to achieve without Web2.0 asynchronous technology (AJAX). In fact, it is typical of cloud computing. What is the use of it? It is not difficult to imagine that its application is extremely extensive, such as teaching, management, marketing and so on can be used.

In fact, HP's webOS, Google's Chrome and Microsoft's Serviceos (released after Win8) are all cloud operating systems. Last year, Motorola acquired mobile operating system Azingo vendors to build their own cloud operating system Motoblur. It is said that Baidu also intervened among them, Baidu Ceorobinli said: "Inthefuture,onesecond,youturnonthedevice,andyoucanstartusingthebox." That ' sourmissionforthefutureoftheinternet. Baidu also began to engage in its own "SearchBox", which has a cloud operating system. At this point, the cloud operating system World War was kicked off, Ubuntu11.04 is announce people, know spring birds.

Essentially, these things are called "anend-to-end" cloud computing platforms. We understand that in the future, all computing devices are always "online", no matter where you go, can easily run your assigned computing equipment, complete the task you want to complete. Now, this is not a dream (I am a dream person). Faced with this future, the extreme importance of low-power arm processors is understandable.
